Can I get you a side of CONSIDERATION with that?

I'm starting to think this blogging thing is going to be my cup of tea. I love complaining, and this is the perfect outlet for me. And look at me: Second post in one day! Woohoo!

So yes, if you didn't just guess I have a bone to pick. I was having a great night at work this evening. I was oddly really really bubbly and happy. It was like someone snuck some drugs in my food or something....whatever, i didn't mind. The restaurant was starting to really slow down by 8:30 (we close at 9:30) and then at like 8:45 two of our "regular" couples walked in. One couple by themselves, the other with their 4 extended family members. ...And I got both tables. Now let me give you a little description of these people:

Most hated regular customer #1: B and B2 (who came in with their family) Their about 70, and while B is a super nice guy, their complete disregard for any waitress's feelings is sucky. And B2 has a rat face. Which I have a problem with.

Most hated regular customer #2: M and L. Both in their mid 70's. L is a wonderful woman. M on the other hand, maybe the weirdest/creepiest guy I've ever met. He insists on making every conversation sexual and only calls me by "baby", "hunny" or "sweetie" He likes to ask me about my sex life, he tries to get me to tell him I have numerous boyfriends, he always wants me to smile and dance for him and likes to sing "here she comes, Miss America" everytime I walk by. This is all in front of his wife of course which makes me feel disgusting. I usually give him a look or a pretend little laugh. Weird

I don't not like these people for the above reasons. Its because nearly every night out of the week they decide to come in between 9 and 9:30. Not like they don't know we close at 9:30. They've been eating at "Min" for 30 years. So they like to come in really late, pissing off the waitresses and cooks, and then stick around often till 10:30ish. Umm...excuse me, do you NOT realize your waitresses are in COLLEGE and have things like i don't know; tests, papers, STUDYING to do?! And then they like to leave a big ol' mess and Mack acts like it hurts him to tip more than $4.

So anyway, both couples come in at like 8:45, Bill and Be with their extended family, and my mood goes from amazing to salty bitch in no time. But I'm a good waitress, although I'm exhausted and tired of their shenanigans. It might not sound like a big deal...but its EXTREMELY frustrating when you just want to GET HOME. And wouldn't you know it, they didn't leave till 10:45!! Seriously, have they no consideration!! I have nada problem with random people coming to eat right before we close. because they probably aren't really aware. But these old fogies have no excuse. And I've had it up to HERE with them.

Yet I can't complain, M and L gave me a ride home tonight. (Lucky, otherwise I wouldn't have gotten home till like 11:15) But Mmay have offered just to get a thrill out of sitting next to a young girl in a car for a few minutes. Yes that's right, he makes his elderly wife sit in the back of a cramped car. Reaaaal nice.

For some reason I started thinking today about some of my past jobs. I've been a waitress, cleaner at an office, babysitter and child educator/entertainer. Therefore I know how to cook/serve food, clean, and take care of children. Yes that's right, I'll make a fabulous wife one day. I have all the qualities a good woman should.

I was just being semi-sarcastic if you didn't pick up on it. For some reason, MJ (marty) and I have this thing with degrading women and idolizing America. Therefore if those themes begin to appear in my blog, laugh and stop being so serious.

Well...I have a million things I could probably keep writing about. But I'm afraid if my blogs get to be to long everyone will lose interest and stop reading.

And if you would...make a comment just once so I know someones reading this.

Have a great night/day!!

You gotta start somewhere...

What, What?? Whitney Cummins is attempting to begin a blog?? This from a girl who has most assuredly started a good five hundred diaries, only to throw them out a week later. BUT, I'm going to TRY and blog (which is both different and better than keeping a diary in my opinion). I think I should blame my desire to do this on both Amanda Eberle who probably keeps the most amazing blog ever. I seriously check that thing like five times a day. I don't know if its because she lives in California which makes for some fantastic stories, her horrendous nannying ordeals, or just the fact that she's a wonderful writer....whatever it is, it makes me want to blog too. I should also blame this on my roommate Marty who has successfully kept up her uber secret diary since we moved in in the fall.

The interesting thing is that I don't even know what I'll be writing about in this blog. Day to day occurrences? And how exciting is a college student's life anyway? Mine seems pretty lame most days. But then again, at least I'll now have some record of my life and that I did anything in my college career.

Its not even like i don't enjoy writing. I have written like mad for the past few years and have journals FULL of little tidbits, poems, and other annoying things that probably only mean anything to me. However it is hard, I'm intensely protective of the things I write. I prefer to keep things going on in my head private. So I don't know how much I'll include in this blog...maybe everything...it just might take awhile.

So as for today its nearly 2:30 and I haven't done much at all. I woke up to go to my first class and suffered the shock weather can only give to those living in the Midwest. Um...yesterday it was in the 70's...I walk to class today and its 30 degrees! WTF!! I do NOT enjoy pulling my dirty winter coat and gloves back out of my closet mother nature! So I make it to my first history class which just happens to be the most stressful and boring class I've ever taken at this university. Luckily for me, my teacher was not in the mood to lecture today because she fell and hurt her back on Monday. Ok, it may sound harsh that I just used Luckily...but my professor is like 60, a mean old hag, and wears the SAME damn outfit every day. I'm bitter. I even went to my second history class of the day where I actually participated in class discussion (!!!) but only because my TA said I should (apparently getting A's on your midterm and papers makes you "smart and proves you have something to say"). blah.

However, I am currently skipping my Geog class which I am doing the worst in. But its to cold to go back outside and I wanted to watch The Hills on MTV...so there. PLUS I have to leave for work at 4 and lucky for me :( I get to close tonight. I must say, I absolutely love waitressing at "Min"...I just hate many of the dumbasses that come in. I'm sure I'll have numerous stories about the dipwads who eat in restaurants.

Other than that, life is going smoothly for me. Kyle's coming to visit this weekend which always brightens me up to no end. So as for now, I'm concluding my very first post.
Bye All!!
